Who takes Ag Ed Courses?

College-bound students: Almost all of the FCHS Ag Education are dual credit courses. Students can earn FREE college credit upon successful completion of these courses, and these courses are also weighted.

Students with an interest in health careers: Whether you want to become a doctor, a veterinarian, or a nurse, our Animal Sciences courses have a strong focus on anatomy and physiology of mammals.

Students with an interest in a science career: Most of our courses are science-based, with lots of lab experiences incorporated. Two of our courses, ALS Animals and ALS Plants, are science credit courses!

Students who like hands-on learning: Every course incorporates some type of hands-on lab or activity EVERY week to help students understand the key concepts in each lesson.

Students who need extra assistance: The FCHS Agriculture Education Department is committed to student success. The instructor has an informal meeting EVERY week with each student to be sure they are on track with their assignments, and grades are updated weekly so students know how they are doing. Teachers provide assistance to students before school, after school, and during Student Resource Time to be sure they are on track for success.
